Ya know this question is asked alot, what is this LS worth? I find your best bet is to take edmunds and kelly and whoever and get the average and that is gonna be pretty accurate. Often it is lower than people want to hear but selling higher mileage luxury cars is usually a slow process. It depends how long you want to wait. I ran it on edmunds 85 k silver color no boxes checked and trade in was 10,8000

Still looking for one

I've got an 02 LS430, Black on Black, 124k miles, NAV/ML that's a 9 out of 10... has the major service, new tires and brakes, new floor mats, just replaced the door actuators, etc.

I'd ask $13,500 if I were to sell it today.

For an 03? Nah. You could get an 04-05 Ul with less miles then that for $20k or less.

Considering the body change in 04 can sometimes be purchased in the high teens, a comfortable price range for all original well maintained (with reasonable mileage) first series LS430s (01-03)should be in the low to mid teens.

It's hard to find a Clean UL 430 for 15k unless the car has over 120k on it with some kind of accident history.

Clean 01-03 UL LS with under 100k miles are still going for more than 15k in my area...Sure i've seen 04 Ultra's for $16-$17k range with over 130k miles and not in tip top shape.

I much rather grab an 01-03 with lower miles, well maintained for $16k range.

I just bought a clean 05 with 78k for 26k from a lexus dealer so maybe 20 - 22 private sale. It was black on black with the factory 18s. I think that made it a little more
